AI agents + underwriters: the new team

About the event:

The difference between a good insurer and a great one? Underwriting quality.

That always comes down to three things:

1. The experience of underwriters
2. The clarity of the insurer’s risk appetite
3. The consistency of the execution

Today, Agentic AI is strengthening all three.

On 30th September, attendees joined InsTech and Sixfold for an evening on how agentic underwriting tools are changing the day-to-day work of underwriting teams: what’s already delivering impact, what’s still in the way, and what we can expect in 2026.

Sixfold graduated from the Lloyd’s Lab in 2024 and is now live with some of the world’s most innovative insurers, including Zurich, AXIS, Generali, and Mosaic. They’re using Sixfold’s underwriting agents to speed up quoting and bring more consistency to risk decisions. The mission? Get underwriters out of PDFs and spreadsheets, and back to what matters: time with customers and brokers.

Those who attended got:

• A sneak peek of one of Sixfold’s biggest agentic releases to date (and the chance to try it out for yourself!)
• A panel discussion with three leaders in insurance and agentic AI

With panellists from:

• Anthropic: Creators of Claude and one of the world’s largest and most trusted LLM providers.
• Mosaic Insurance: Recognised innovator in cyber and specialty lines, operating across 8 global underwriting hubs.
• Sixfold: Designed from day one to deliver agentic AI that underwriters trust.

The panel covered questions like:

• What ROI is agentic AI actually delivering in underwriting today?
• What’s enabling adoption, and what’s still blocking it?
• What will AI-native underwriting look like by 2026?
